:Perhaps, "Recurring characters" and "Supporting characters"? Given that within the individual episodes they all have roughly equivalent status its just that some turn up way more often. One could also make it "Frequently recurring characters". My 2 cents, refunds available.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 23:52, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
::Definitely split, however the "Supporting characters" thingy would be kept, and split into "Recurring" and "minor". My 2 cents.

I don't think a split is required. The table groups everyone into protagonists ([[Ash's friends]]), antagonists (people trying to steal from or kill Ash's friends), rivals (people that Ash and his friends fight on a recurring basis), and everyone else. The antagonists and rivals often have arcs dedicated to them. Now, the reason Oak has appeared in more episodes is because he's been around since the very beginning, like Nurse Joy. She appears quite often (or did when I watched the anime), yet is at the same level as Rhonda because they aren't as important to the plot as a whole (important to small aspects, but not the overarching plot). tl;dr? Oak goes with everyone else because even though he's been around since the beginning, he's really only as important as Rhonda, Scott, and Looker. &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:#000">darklord</span>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 01:47, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Don't worry, the yellow is a variable setting so we can change the color of the template depending on the theme of the page.

I don't think Harrison, Tyson, or Solidad belong in the rivals section.

== Re-evaluating Goh's Cinderace ==
As of JN082, Goh's Grookey has still not failed to appear in a single episode since its debut and has appeared in 24 episodes straight (the exact same amount of episodes that Scorbunny/Raboot had appeared in prior to it being added as a main character). I don't think that Grookey should be added as a main character right now, but I do think it's worth reconsidering Cinderace's position.
While it did appear in every episode since its debut while it was still a Scorbunny/Raboot, its appearances have gone down by a noticeable amount after evolving into Cinderace.
Excluding flashback/fantasy/image-only appearances and only counting episodes starting with its debut back in JN004, Cinderace has appeared in roughly 80% of episodes, which is significantly below all other Pokémon that were considered main characters (the lowest is Piplup at roughly 92% for DP).

== new template ==
With the arrival of the new anime, wouldn't it be more productive to create a new one to add the new characters?[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 14:51, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
== Chloe ==
Please add her as a main character. She deserved it more than Grookey, and the video below proves that she's seen as aan equal to Ash's previous companions.

:Chloe being grouped up with Ash's friends is nothing new, and Grookey has literally appeared more than she has.
:She was absent from over 50% of the Pocket Monsters arc of Journeys, not even counting ATBAPM. Additionally, she was never listed on the site as a main character either. [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 22:57, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
== Desperately needs a cleanup ==
This template is the messiest thing on this site. The Horizons characters shouldn't be on here, they have nothing to do with the original series (as of now) and they're thrown into a cluttered list of characters that have nothing to do with them. Imo, make a new template for Horizons. It might even be worth to make new templates for each series, but the Horizons one should definitely be a priority. Here's a quick mock-up for a Horizons characters template, if it helps:
{| align="center" class="roundy" style="border: 2px solid #{{{{{1|scarlet}}} color dark}}; background: #{{{{{1|scarlet}}} color}};"
|-
! colspan="3" class="roundy" style="background: #{{{{{1|violet}}} color light}};" | {{color2|000|List of Pokémon Horizons characters|Pokémon Horizons characters}}
|- align="center"
|
{| align="center" class="roundy" style="background: #FFFFFF; border: 2px solid #{{{{{1|scarlet}}} color dark}};"
|- align="center"
! class="roundyleft" style="background:#{{green color light}}; border:1px solid #{{green color dark}}; font-size: 90%; padding-top:5px; padding-bottom:5px" width="70px" | {{color|{{green color dark}}|Protagonists}}
| class="roundyright" style="border:1px solid #{{green color dark}}; background:#FFFFFF; font-size: 90%; padding-left:15px; padding-right:15px" align="left" | [[Liko]] • [[Roy]]

:I'm all for a completely separate animecharacters template for Horizon characters. The current template could also do with a more organized layout or a template for each series.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#F34134">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#F7837B">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#8334B7">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#AE7BD0">ire</span>]] 10:36, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
::One thing in particular that always bothered me was the antagonists section, especially with how the Team Rocket trio (and Wobbuffet) were grouped together with the other antagonists. Even if they were antagonists, they were also main characters as well, so I feel like the template should reflect this in ''some'' manner and not just lump them together with everyone else.

:::As for that, Jamal, I think it shouldn't change much in the new season of the anime. The new Trio (Amethio, Zir and Cona) must be main characters of this season too, and I start to think that Friede must also have this role in Horizons.
:::There's probably a lot that will have to be worked on in the next few days, especially when the plot of the new anime unfolds.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 17:43, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
